Supported Yoga postures to restore body, mind and spirit while absorbing the healing sounds of the bowls.

In his words, “Since September 11, 2011, I have been performing across our beautiful country, assisting people in learning how to raise their vibrational frequencies with my collection of singing crystal bowls, alchemy bowls, Tibetan Bowls, sound infused aromatherapy mists, and magical morphing lights.

During this performance I open, clear and balance the Chakras and then call in Dolphin Spirit who makes everybody smile and laugh. People find this quite enchanting. One of my Tibetan Bowls sings just like a dolphin.This is followed by teaching people how to call in the Angels. Audiences everywhere not only hear Angels singing, but also see them. I close my performance teaching everybody 3 sacred tonal keys designed in The Temples of King Solomon to be used in this era, as the year 2012 approaches. ”
